Bağlıdere Vadisi, Tekelli, Uçhisar/Nevşehir Merkez/Nevşehir, Türkiye
Love Valley owes its name to the unusual phallic-shaped fairy chimneys that rise 30 to 40 metres above the valley floor, the tallest of any Cappadocian valley. The 4 km hiking trail starts at the Love Valley viewpoint on the Goreme to Uchisar road and finishes near the Goreme Open Air Museum. Allow 90 minutes to two hours including photo stops. The path is mostly flat with one gentle 60-metre descent into the valley, and runs alongside small vineyards and apricot orchards used by villagers from Goreme. Bring 1.5 litres of water in summer; there are no taps once you leave the viewpoint. Horse riding tours from Dalton Brothers Ranch traverse the same valley if you prefer four legs to two.
Pro Tip: Hike Love Valley in reverse, starting from Goreme at 06:30 in summer 2026, to catch a balloon flotilla overhead before the valley heats up.
